INDIAN ACCOUNT 

The history of this section of the state in connection with 
the Indians is of especial interest as it dates from the time 
Capt, George Weymouth landed on the coast, somewhere 
along the shore of Knox county, and after making extensive 
explorations, captured several of the natives whom he took 
back to Europe with him. We are unable in this brief 
account to give any details in regard to the many conflicts 
the early traders in this section had with these red men of 
the forest, or of their many attacks upon those who took 
their lives in their hands and left safe communities to make 
for themselves in the land of the hostile savage, homes and a 
name that will ever be honored. 

This section does not seem to have been the permanent 
home of any tribe of Indians, although the Tarratines were 
most frequently in possession. This tribe was a branch of 



6 HISTORICAL 

the Warenocks or Etcheniin tribe of the eastern part of the 
state and were at one time perhaps the most powerful tribe 
in New Enoland. When the tradino- posts or "truck houses" 
as they were called, were established here about 1880, the 
Indians were on friendly terms with the white visitors, and 
to some extent were pleased to share their spacious territory 
with them in return for the many beautiful things the adven- 
turers had to offer them. Gradually the true situation 
dawned upon them and they became aware that their home, 
the natural wilds, and their liberty, were in danger and from 
that time until there was no hope infighting, they held a hos- 
tile position to the encroachments of the pale-faced squat- 
ters, and often waged futile war with the intention of exter- 
minating this hated people. The complete story has been 
often and beautifully^ told. We will only add that this state, 
where three centuries ago probably the foot of civilized man 
never trod, but the red man roamed the entire territory in 
quest of game or fish; today is dotted with innumerable 
dwellings and factories, and lined with railroads; while on 
the rivers, lakes and inlets of the sea the red man's canoe 
has been completely displaced by the sailing craft and steam- 
ers of civilized man, while the native race has become a mem- 
ory only. True and pathetic are the words of Charles 
Sprague : 

"Alas for them, their day is o'er. 

Their fires are out from hill and shore; 

No more for them the wild deer bounds, 

The plow is on their hunting grounds ; 

The pale man's axe rings through their woods, 



HISTORICAL 

The pale man's sail skims o'er their floods: 

Cold with the beast he slew, he sleeps ; 

O'er him no filial spirit weeps; 

No crowds thron^^ round, no anthem notes ascend 

To bless his coming and embalm his end ; 

E'en that he lived, is for his conqueror's tongue, 

By foes alone his death song must be sung." 



EXPLORATIONS AND LAND GRANTS. 

Few sections of the state are of more historical interest 
than that l3ing around the mouths of the great water 
courses, the earliest thoroughfares of the red men, as also of 
his palefaced kinsman who succeeded him in theland. These 
highways of travel were often pursued by war parties of 
natives ; later, when war waged between the English settlers 
and the French: and still later, when we were at enmity with 
those with whom we had earlier stood side by side against a 
common foe. These humble and peace loving pioneers were 
often in great danger of becoming exterminated, when they 
were forced to bring every resourse into action to face the 
dangers and the stern realities of a pioneer life. 

It is generally conceded that Capt. George We^^mouth, 
an English navigator who sought a northwest passage to 
China, is the first European who visited the locality at the 
mouth of the Penobscot river, in 1605. We have no means 
of knowing who were the European visitants to these wild 
shores between that date and 1614, although the mountains 



8 HISTORICAL 

of Camden served as a landmark to many voyagers, being 
often mentioned in their reports. 

The famous Capt. John Smith is the next whom we have 
authority to say explored these shores. He sailed from 
London, Mar. 3, 1614, and arrived at Monhegan the last of 
April. Building several boats here, with eight of his men, 
he ranged the coast from Penobscot to Cape Cod, making 
observations and trading with the Indians. Smith, after re- 
turning to England, published a book describing his voyage 
and speaks of an Indian settlement at Camden called Macad- 
ducat. He wrote "The most northern point I was at was 
the bay of Penobscot. ***** i found in 
the bay that the river ran Tar up into the land, and was well 
inhabited by many people, but they were from their habita- 
tions, either fishing among the Isles or hunting the lakes 
and woods for deer and beavers." Doubtless this settlement 
was only the temporary habitation of a band of the Wavve- 
nock Indians. There is now no trace to indicate where these 
tenants dwelt. Smith's object in publishing this book was 
to induce the people of England to form a colony, which, 
had he been successful, might have made this vicinity in- 
stead of Plymouth the nucleus of New England, but no set- 
tlements are known to have been made until after the lapse 
of over a century and a half. 

The Muscongus Patent was granted by the Council of 
Plymouth to John lieaucharap of London, and Thomas 
Leverett of lioston, March 13, 1()21). The limits of the 
Patent extended from the river Muscongus to Penobscot 
river on the seaboard, and ran back far enough to embrace 



HISTORICAL 9 

an extent of territory equal to 30 square miles. On the 
death of Beauchamp, Leverett as survivor succeeded to the 
estate. In 1719 John Leverett, who was then president of 
Harvard College, representing himself as sole heir of his 
grandfathers estate, came into posession of the whole 
Patent. Finding it difficult to establish his claim as sole 
proprietor, he divided the estate into ten shares, granted 
one share to a son of (Jov. Bradford, one share to an adopt- 
ed son of Sir Wra. Phipps who brought into the company the 
Indian deed which his father had bought of Madocawando 
in 1094, and thus secured the title the Tarretines claimed in 
the territory — two shares to Elisha Cook, and one each to 
four others, descendants of Thomas Leverett, holding two 
shares himself. These were known as the "ten proprietors." 
Soon after this twenty others became associated with them, 
when they were called the "Thirty Proprietors." 

After the treaty of Utrech, one David Dunbar, Surveyor 
General of the Woods to His Majesty, claimed a quit rent 
for the kiug. Fearing the loss of their right to the territory 
the thirty proprietors engaged the services of B>rig. Samuel 
Waldo to go to England to obtain a relinquishment of the 
claims presented. After untiring application at court he 
succeeded in getting Dunbar removed, and in accomplishing 
his mission. On his return the thirty proprietors joined in 
surrendering to him for his service one half of the Patent. 
In 1732 Waldo caused his portion to be set off, and by send- 
ing agents to Germany who held out attractive inducements 
to emigrants, soon formed quite a German colony at Broad 
Bay. Tradition says that Waldo died while locating the 



10 HISTORICAL 

bounds of his Patent, in the vicinity of Eddington Bend. 

A short time previous to Waldo's death, it was agreed 
to dissolve the partnership existing between the different 
parties owning the then Muscongus grant, but the necessary 
surveys were not made until after the death of Waldo. The 
Ten Proprietors and the Twenty Associates, as these two 
companies became designated, had agreed to accept as their 
proportion 100,000 acres each. The surveyors were delayed 
from year to year, until 1766, when John Jeffries, one of the 
twenty associates, and the heirs of others, by petition ob- 
tained a warrant to call a meeting of the proprietors. The 
meeting was called on the 6th of Sept. when sixteen of the 
original twenty associates were represented. They chose a 
committee to confer with the heirs of Gen. Waldo respecting 
the 100,000 acres belonging to them and to report. This 
resulted in the selection by the Twenty Associates, of the 
territory now included in Camden, Rockport, Hope, Apple- 
ton, Montville and a part of Liberty. This was surveyed 
and set off, the deed bearing the date April 7, 1768. 

It was not until 1773 that the ten Proprietors had their 
portion set off by the Waldo heirs, when, instead of the 
100,000 acres, they accej^ted 90,000 in one entire tract. 
They, supposing the Patent extended as far back as Bangor, 
selected Frankfort, part of Monroe, the whole of Hampden, 
and a large part of liangor ; but when the boundaries of the 
Patent were established it was found that the northern line 
of Frankfort was the northern limit of the Patent. Thus 
the Ten Proprietors lost all they claimed except about 43,- 
000 acres. Redress was sought but the Proprietors never 



HISTORICAL 11 

obtained any satisfaction for their loss. 

The rest of the Musconous (Jrant, containing about 
400,000 acres and including the territory south of that al- 
lotted to the Twenty Associates, lying between the Penob- 
scot and the Muscongus rivers, fell to the Waldo heirs, which 
was finally set off in a deed of severance about 1773, when 
it took the name of Waldo Patent. 



EARLY SETTLEMENTS IN CAMDEN AND 
ROCKPORT 

In 17()8 "The Twenty Associates" or "the Lincolnshire 
Company," as they were sometimes called, had the planta- 
tion subsequently known as Camden, surveyed by David 
Fales, Esq., of Thomaston. The boundaries then determined 
upon have since been somewhat changed. According to his 
survey, the township was six miles in length, by five miles 
and sixty-two rods in width. 

According to this measurement, Camden mountains were 
then embraced in Canaan, or Lincoln ville, as it is now called. 
The strip of territory north of the above mentioned line was 
ceded to Camden by Canaan, before Camden was incorpor- 
ated, in answer to the prayer of certain petitioners, who 
wished to be set off because of the close proximity of the har- 
bor village. 

The other boundaries were nearly the same as are 
described in the first act of incorporation. The southeast 



12 HISTORICAL 

corner is indicated by a rock marked A. X. on the north side 
of Owl's Head bay. From thence, according to the act of 
incorporation the line runs "northwest by north seven miles 
and sixty-four poles," which brings it to the southern corner 
of Hope, Thence it runs "northeast five miles and ninety- 
four poles,'' which brings it to the eastern corner of Hope, 
and then takes in the ceded territory by "running east three 
miles and a half and twenty poles to a spruce tree;" thence it 
runs "southeast by south one mile to Little Ducktrap," and 
"thence by the sea shore in a westerly direction to the bounds 
first mentioned,"— at Owl's Plead bay. According to these 
limits, Camden contained 23,500 acres which remained 
unchanged until the division of the town in 1891. 

In 1767 James Richards moved his family from a place 
on the Piscataqua river, N. H., to Bristol, Maine, where he 
resided until 1768, during which year he (;ame down to the 
then wilderness of the township of Camden at the Harbor, 
then known by the Indians under the name of Negunticook, 
or ]\Iegunticook, as it is now spelled, where he erected a rude 
log hut. The following spring, May 1769, Mr. Richards 
embarked in a vessel with his family, bound for his destined 
home. As they entered the harbor, (on the 8th of May) the 
African cook pointed to the island at the entrance and 
exclaimed, "Dare, — dat's my island ! " and it was thenceforth 
known as Negro Island. 

At that time there were a few Indians' wigwams on what 
is now called Eaton's point, and also on Beauchamp point. 
The Indians were always friendly, but Mrs. Richards used 
sometimes to feel somewhat alarmed as they came to the 



HISTORICAL 13 

cabin in the abseDce of her husband to grind their toma- 
hawks upon the grind-stone at the door. 

The same year Mr. Richards' two brothers, Joseph and 
Dodapher, joined him. In the following July Robert Thorn- 
dike, who was born in Beverly, but then lived in Portland, 
came and settled at Goose River— now Rockport. He 
brought with him seven children. Mr. Thorndike possessed 
a tolerable knowledge of the place before, as he had been 
here two or three years previous with his vessel to cut tim- 
ber. The next settler who followed Mr. Richards at the har- 
bor was Maj. Wilham Minot, of Boston, who settled at the 
foot of Megunticook stream, upon which he erected the first 
grist and saw mill. His house was the first framed house 
erected in Camden. Lewis Ogier, of French descent, came next, 
— from Quebec. Mr. Thorndike at Rockport, was next joined 
by his brother Paul, and James Simonton, and afterwards 
by John Harkness, Peter Ott, Jno. Ballard and others. Also 
near the same time, William Gregory, Mark Buckland, Will- 
iam Porterfield and William Upham settled at Clam Cove. 

From this time, the settlement gradually began to 
increase until the commencement of the Revolution, when 
immigration ceased. 

Robert Thorndike was the first white male child born in 
Camden, including Camden and Rockport. He was born at 
Goose River (Rockport) Sept. 17, 1773. 

During the Revolution a number of the settlers returned 
to their former homes, but upon the conclusion of peace the 
tide of immigration again turned toward the Province of 
Maine. Efforts were made to procure settlers by the twenty 



M HISTORICAL 

associates, who made an agreement with Chas. Barrett, of 
Ipswich, N. H., to procure settlers. Barrett was to build a 
meeting house, a school house, and to obtain forty settlers 
to locate in the present town of Hope and the western part 
of Camden. Among those who availed themselves of the 
attractive inducements which were offered, and who located 
in that territory mentioned were: the Saffords, Philbricks, 
Barretts, Mansfields, Hodgmans, Russells, Hosmers and 
Appletons. Many of these came here in 1785 and 1786. 
Samuel Appleton came'from Boston, accompanied by several 
others, and erected a log hat where a number of his associ- 
ates lived with him until they were able to make clearings for 
themselves. Nathaniel Hosmer was one of these. He came 
from Mason, N. H., and finally settled on the place known as 
the old Hosmer place. He erected a cabin near the pond, 
and the following summer erected a frame house. Job Hodg- 
man, who married Hosmer's sister, came that spring, and 
soon after, Asa Hosmer, Nathaniel's brother, with two other 
sisters; then came Samuel Russell and John Sartelle who 
married these sisters, Eunice and Tabatha, and settled in the 
vicinity. William Molyneaux, who took a very prominent 
part in developing the early town, about 1786, purchased of 
the Lincolnshire Company the whole of Beauchamp Neck and 
other parcels of land at the Harbor, together with the land 
at the foot of the pond, and erected a grist mill and a saw 
mill on the stream at the outlet of the lake. 

Up to the year 1790 there was not a passable road in 
the plantation of Camden three miles in length. There was 
a foot path running from St. George through Camden to 



HISTORICAL 15 

Sandy Neck, in Prospect; this at first was indicated only by 
a line oi spotted trees through the unbroken forest. On the 
10th of Nov. 1790, a road was laid out extending from Thom- 
aston, now Rockland, to Camden Harbor, and thence to 
"Little Duck Trap" which is the first road we find any record 
of in the town. 



INCORPORATION 

Up to the year 1791 Camden was only known as a plan- 
tation, defined as being- in the County of Hancock, *Province 
of Maine, aad Commonwealth of Massachusetts. The appel- 
lation of Negunticook, or Mengunticook, up to this time 
was sometimes given to the whole plantation, but generally 
it was applied to the settlement at the harbor, of which place 
the name is most happily suggestive. 

On the 17th of February, 1791, "the plantation of Cam- 
den" became incorporated as the 72d town inthestate. The 
name of Camden was bestowed upon the township by the 
Twenty Associates, in honor of Lord Camden, a parliamen- 
tary friend of the colonists prior to, and during the Revolu- 
tionary war. 

The first town meeting was held at the inn of Peter Ott, 
on the 4th of April, 1791. The officers there chosen were: 
William Gregory, moderator; John Harkness, town clerk; 
John Harkness, 1st selectman ; William Gregory, 2d select- 
man; William McGlathry, 3d selectman; Paul Thorndike, 



16 HISTORICAL 

constable; Nathaniel Palmer, tax collector; Joseph Eaton, 
treasurer. 

After disposino; of the ordinary town business they pro- 
ceeded to vote for William Lithgow, Esq., for Representative 
to Congress, casting thirty-two votes. John Hancock for 
Governor, and Samuel Adams for lieut. Gov. each received 
twenty-six votes. 

In 1782 we find there was a law in force authorizing the 
selectmen to warn all new comers or transient persons out 
of town who had not made application to the proper town 
authorities for the purpose of becoming permanent residents. 
On one precept, served Jan. 2nd, 1792, we find the names of 
twenty-two men, women, and children who were thus "warned 
outof town." Among this number were thenamesof several 
who were afterwards considered among the first citizens of 
the town in wealth and respectability. The object of this 
law was to prevent persons becoming chargeable as paupers 
to any place: It was a relic of England, but was not long 
continued. At this time there was but one pauper in town. 
She was kept by different persons for lOs. per week> 

During the year 1794 a postofiice was established in 
town, with Joseph Eaton as postmaster. This office was 
in the house known as the old Eaton house, situated on 
Eaton's Point. Geo. Russell of Castine, was mail-carrier, 
traversing the route from St. George to Sandy Point and 
back about once a week. When within about half a mile of 
the postoffice the carrier heralded his approach by sounding 
a post-horn. Mr. Eaton was succeeded as postmaster by 
John Hathaway who was followed by Benjamin Gushing. 



HISTORICAL 17 

In the town records of March 4, 1800, there was an arti- 
cle, "To see what the tow'n will do in regard to setting off a 
part of Camden joininp; the northerly part of Thomaston to 
make another town," A committee was appointed and the 
survey made, but no definite action was taken on the article 
afterward. The dividino; line as surveyed, was to commence 
between Goose River, (Rockport), and Clam Cove, and run 
northerly to the Hope line. 

1823. The first steamboat that sailed eastern waters 
commenced to visit Camden. Her name was the "Maine," 
Capt. Daniel Lunt, C immander. She was of about 125 tons 
burden and plied between Bath and the Penobscot ports. 

1832. The town voted to build a town-house "forty by 
thirty-two feet, one story hioh." The first town meeting 
held in this house was on Sept. 9th, 1833. Previous to this 
the meetings were held sometimes in private houses, some- 
times in school houses, sometimes in the church. 

1835. The town voted to choose Hon. Jos. Hall as 
agent to solicit the V. S. engineer to survey a route to Cam- 
den Harbor for the Canada Railroad. Many believed the 
road would come here, but their dream was not realized. 

183(5. The Megunticook Bank was chartered, with Wm. 
Carlton, pres., Warren Rawson, Esq., cashier. Capital stock, 
150,000. 

1840. A postoffice was established at Goose River, Silas 
Piper, postmaster. 

In the month of May, 1852, the citizens of (loose River 
decided to change the name of their village and postoflBce, 
choosing the name of Rockport as one most appropriate to 



18. HISTORICAL 

the locality ; this choice met with some criticism from their 
well meaning neighbors at Rockland, but the name was 
retained and has become dear to its every citizen. 

On Feb. 25, 1891, a division of the town was made, the 
northern part being set off to iorm a new town but taking 
the name of the old town — the southern portion, or the town 
proper taking the name of Rockport.

MILITARY MATTERS 



The military history of Camden and Rockport is brilliant 
with the noble achievementsof the many brave sonswhohave 
so readily responded to the call of the nation in time of need. 
Also at the breaking out of the Revolutionary war the set- 
tlers located here with 2 or 8 exceptions were iound to be of 
the band of patriots who were ready to fight for their lib- 
erty, and to die if need be that those who already had so 
many hardships to contend with, might not have the added 
burden of excessive and uofair taxation. From its situation 
on the bay and its accessible harbor, Camden was the scene 
of several depridations perpetrated by the Tories and Brit- 
ish troops. The vicinity was often frequented by "saving- 
mills," as the barges of British marauders were called, in 
which they came to plunder the settlers of their cattle, sheep 
and poultry, and frequently committing personal outrages. 
Many are the interesting accounts of skirmishes had, but we 
must mention only one: About 1779, Megunticook, as Cam- 
den was then called, was visited by the enemy. An American 
coaster was pursued by a British barge. The coaster, con- 
taining about a dozen men, w as run ashore at Ogier's Cove, 
when the alarm w^as given to Leonard Metcalf, residing in 



20 HISTORICAL 

that vicinitj^, who alarmed the neighborino^ settlers. They 
soon came to the rescue, and secreting themselves in ambush 
with the vessel's crew, awaited the approach of the enemy. 
When within shooting distance, a volley from three of the 
settler's guns held them in check. Metcalf then ran out from 
the thicket and fired at them, when he would run back, load 
again, and repeat the act. The enemy thus being held in 
check did not dare advance for fear of their liv^es, and soon 
concluded to withdraw. The next day, the settlers suppos- 
ing the enemy would return to take the prize when the tide 
should be favorable, mustered those in the vicinity of Goose 
River, and awaited their appearance, but the English did 
not think it proper to renew the attempt. On the next ris- 
ing tide the vessel sailed from the harbor. 

The British took possession of Biguyduce (Castine) on 
the 12th of June, 1779, and Massachusetts formed the 
scheme to dislodge them. A force of 1200 men were to be 
raised in the counties of Cumberland and Lincoln, which lat- 
ter included Camden at that time. Among those who enlisted 
from this place the names of Wm. (Jregory, Peter Ott, 
Andrew Wells, and Leonard Metcalf appear on the pay-roll. 
The expedition against Biguyduce was unsuccessful and sev- 
eral men were lost. The troops were somewhat scattered, 
one division of the main force following the shore and pass- 
ing through Belfast and Camden. Before this expedition 
Gen. (Jeo. Ulmer, of Ducktrap, threw up a slight timber 
breastwork on the summit of Pine Hill, and after this defeat 
Camden was looked to for protection by the settlers all 
along the Penobscot river. As soon as the British gained 



HISTORICAL 21 

possession of the Peninsula, Captain Brewer and others with 
their families from all alonty the river procured a passage on 
a vessel to Camden, of which (leu. Uhner took command. 
The inhabitants of Belfast, rather than take the oath of 
allegiance to Great Britain, left their homes, to a man, and 
came to Camden. About half-a-dozen families remained here 
while the others went on to Warren, Saco, Bristol, New 
Hampshire and Massachusetts. Most of those who halted 
at Camden, found quarters at Clam Cove, at the homes of 
Tollman, (Jregory, and others; and at the Harbor at Mr. 
Richards', and at the River, at the house of Mr. Thorndike, 
and others. None were safe here until the close of the war, 
when many returned to their former homes, but to find that 
their houses, in many instances, lay in ashes. 

In 1812 Camden again found herself in the midst of war. 
Space torbids that we give in detail the accounts of the many 
interesting events which took place in this vicinity, the many 
deeds of valor performed by those of the citizens of Camden 
who took so active part in the coast defences and in general 
hostilities. After the call for militiamen, 2,500 of which 
were Maine's appointment, this town appointed a "Commit- 
tee of Public Safety," and at the same time voted "Unani- 
mously that every Citizen (whether exempt from military 
duty or not) forthwith arm and equip himself for actual ser- 
vice, to be ready at a moment's warning to assist in repelling 
foreign invasions or any emergency for the defence of the 
Town." The same spirit continued throughout the war. 
Many coasting vessels from Comden were attacked, and sev- 
eral captured by the British privateers ; while, in turn, these 



22 HISTORICAL 

hardy seamen aided in the capture, or defeat, of the British 
rovers. Several Companies were formed in Camden inchiding 
citizens from Thomaston, Hope, Warren, and St. George. 
The names of the officers of these companies in 1814 were as 
follows: Of the Light Infantry Co., Calvin Curtis, Capt. ; 
Edward Hanford, Lieut.; Arthur Pendleton, Ensign; Wm. 
Brown, 1st Sergeant; Simeon Tyler, 1st Corp.; numbering 
including officers, 27 men. Of the 1st Infantry Co., Asha 
Palmer, Capt. ; Noah Brooks, I^ieut. ; Joseph Hall, Ensign. 
Of the 2nd Infantry Co., of West Camdeo, Samuel Tolman, 
Capt.; James Packard, Lieut. These companies belonged 
to the 5th Regiment of which Erastus Foote, of Camden, was 
Colonel, or chief in command. Of the Cavalry Co. Isaac 
Barnard was Captain ; being later succeeded by Philip Ulmer. 
During the month of July of this year, a party of the 
enemy was dispatched in the night time from two armed 
ships lying at the mouth of St. George's river, and proceeded 
to the fort below Thomaston. At the fort, where they met 
with no resistance, they destroyed the munitions of war and 
six cannon, set fire to the buildings and one vessel, and towed 
away two others. Thence they proceeded up the river 
toward Thomaston, but were dissuaded from their course. 
These manoeuvers of the enemy in adjacent territory induced 
thecitizensof Camden to take the utmost precaution against 
an attack. Guards were stationed from Camden harbor to 
Clam Cove, and the strictest militery surveillance maintained. 
Two fortifications were erected and garrisoned at the harbor, 
one on Jacob's Point, and one on Eaton's Point. Also an 
18-pounder that had been spiked by the enemy at Fort 



HISTORICAL 23 

George was brought and planted on the top of Mt. Batty ; 
a barrack was erected on the mountain and the necespary 
munitions of war provided. The men who were stationed on 
the mountain were Corporal Jonathan Leighton, Jesse Derry, 
Isaac Sheldon, James Metcalf and Robert Corthell, privates. 

In Aug. 1814 the U. S. corvette, Adams, ran ashore on 
the Isle au Haute. After being gotten off in a critical condi- 
tion, she left 25 men, disabled by scurvy, and about GO pris- 
oners, at Camden, and sailed up the river to Hampden, 
where she was attacked soon after by a British fleet from 
Halifax. Space forbids a recital of this interesting battle, in 
which the noble patriots, uuder (leneral Blake were inglori- 
ously defeated. The Adams was burned by her gallant com- 
mander, and a scene of pillage and wanton destruction ensued, 
such as has never occurred elsewhere in the state in civilized 
warfare. 

Many other interesting events took place in Camden 
before peace was restored in Dec. 1814, but we must add 
only the names of a few citizens who played important parts 
in the war, either as home guards, local privateers, or in the 
general service. Asa Richards and Peter Oat, son of Peter 
Ott, Paul Thorndike, who was captured and imprisoned at 
Dartmoor, Eng. ; Capt. Stephen Rollins; Lieut. Isaac Russ; 
AsaSartelle; Capt. Chesley Blake, afterward commander of 
the first steamboat that plied between Detroit and Buffalo, 
on Lake Erie; Adj. Wm. Carlton; Wm. Tarr; Capt. Wm. 
Blake; Wm. Metcalf; Richard Conway; John Tarr; and 
others. 

At the breaking out of the Civil war the town was found 



24 HISTORICAL 

among the most loyal in the state, while the men she sent 
into the field performed many deeds of valor that caused 
their names to stand out among those who won honor to 
themselves and victory for the Union and Liberty. The 
total number of men sent by the town of Camden, then 
embracing both Rockport and Camden, was 458. We are 
unable to say how many of these were residents of the part 
now incorporated in the town of Rockport. We must not 
give the whole list of soldiers for space forbids.

INDUSTRIAL ACCOUNT 

The first industry to be conducted in the territory com- 
prisino; the entire town of old Camden, now Camden and 
Rockport, was tlie saw and grist mill built by Maj. William 
Minot, in 1767, on Megiinticook stream. Previous to this 
the settlers carried their corn upon their backs through the 
woods to Warren. Miuot's mill, in turn, was resorted to by 
the settlers of Union and Belfast. Most of the early pioneers 
secured their means of subsistance by farming, fishing, or 
hunting. About 1786, Wm. Molyneaux, Esq., of Boston, 
erected two mills, a grist mill and a saw mill, on the stream 
at the foot of Canaan, or Molyneaux's Pond. We will here 
quote from the journal of Rev. Paul Coffin, D. 1)., of Buxton, 
who preached here. He wrote under date of Aug. 15, 179G : 
"Camden, formerly Megunticook. Squire McGlathry treated 
me with true and simple politeness and hospitality. This is 
a place beautiful for situation, and promising for trade. The 
harbor, a mill for boards and corn on a fresh stream, and 
the adjacent gently rising lands, made a good appearance, 
and are quite convenient. The back country, east and west, 
have no market but this. One ship and a schooner have 
this year been launched here, and six or seven heavy vessels 
are on the stocks. The roads are here beaten and worn. 
The place looks more like home, and a seat of trade, than 
Ducktrap, Northport, or Belfast. Eight years have done all 
this. The squire has sold one-fourth of an acre of land for 
|100. About fifteen neat houses, some large, with other 



26 HISTORICAL 

buildings, make the appearance of a compact town. The 
harbor is full of pleasant islands." We can give no better 
picture of the town at that time than the above. 

This town, we believe, was one of the first in the state to 
be supplied with a water system. In 1800, Micah and Wm. 
Hobbs came from Princeton, Mass., and contracted with 
Jacob Reed to lay an aquaduct from a spring at the base of 
the mountain to the Harbor village. This was a stock com- 
pany, but was generally participated in by the people of the 
village. Between 1812 and 1818 another conduit was laid 
leading from a spring in James Richard's field, from which 
the more southerly part of the village was supplied with 
water. 

Gen. Nathaniel Estabrook established salt works on 
Beauchamp Neck at an early date, about 1825, which was 
the principal, if not the only industrial establishment in that 
part of the town. This, however, was not a paying invest- 
ment and was not long continued. Ebenezer H. Barrett and 
John Swann erected a paper mill at a cost of |5000 where 
they manufactured forty dollars' worth of paper per day. 
In 1841 the mill was burned. 

LIME INDUSTRY 

The lime industry in this town, like several others in this 
county, has been a leading one. It has been the means of 
the growth of the leading places in this region. This indus- 
try coupled with the shipbuilding and ice industry has fur- 
nished Rockport's industrial life. 



HISTORICAL 2? 

Away back in the time of General Knox who lived in 
Thomaston, lime rock was hauled away from this town. 
The harbor was ver}^ advantaoeously formed for this indus- 
try, and the lime rock jutted so close to the water's edo;e 
that it was more easily obtainable than at any other ooint 
about Penobscot Bay. Tradition, at least, has it that lime 
rock was hauled away from Rockport harbor even before the 
product of the first quarry at Thomaston, which has in 
later years come to bear the name of the Prison Quarry. 
However much truth there may be in the tradition we are 
unable to state. But we know that from the very earliest 
time the lime industry has to a greater or lesser degree 
demanded the attention of the people of this town. 

The history of hme burning in Rockport may be divided 
into two different periods, — the days before the advent of the 
patent kiln and the period since that time, notfarfrom 1850. 

In the time previous to the patent kiln the industry was 
confined to the farms and individual plants. Nearly every 
farm in the town had a lime kiln, and every farmer made the 
work of quarrying and burning lime a part of the work of 
the farm every year. Traces of these old kilns are still vis- 
sible on nearly all farms in town. 

The advent of the patent kiln, as before stated (about 
1850) sounded the knell of the old fashioned wood kiln and 
of the individual effort at the industry. The patent kiln 
enabled the operator to keep the work moving continually, 
and much more rapidly, thus turning out a larger product. 

In the old days prior to 1854 some of the leading men in 
the business were as follows: Browns, Barretts, Robert and 



28 HISTORICAL 

Paul Thorndyke, Eben Thorndyke. About the time of the 
advent of the patent kiln those enojaojed in the business along 
the shore of the bay were as follows : 

H. A. Barrows; Carleton, Norwood & Co.; Alexander 
Martin; Concifort Barrows; Mr.Sweetland; Joseph Andrews; 
Robert and Patrick McLaughlin; Paul Thorndyke; Eben 

Thorndyke; Graffam; John Harkness; William 

Brown; Jotham Shepherd; Amos and Samuel Barrett; 
John and Charles Barrett. 

When the patent kiln came into use the following con- 
cerns did the most of the business : Carleton, Norwood & Co. ; 
A. Martin; William and Elbridge Carleton; G. F. Burgess; 
David Talbot; E.Merriam; Jotham Shepherd '; Christopher 
Young; Granville E. Carleton; and John H. Eells. 

The quarrying of the rock was in some respects a separ- 
ate industry from that of burning the rock. Some concerns 
quarried the rock alone and some both quarried and burned 
the rock. The electric road which has been installed, has 
been of immense value in transporting the rock from the 
quarry to the kiln. Carleton, Norwood & Co. were the chief 
quarriers before the patent kiln. 

In 1900 a new move was made in the lime industry by 
the formation of a combination in the business known as 
the "Syndicate." The Rockport concerns who sold their 
property to the new concern were: S. E. & H. L. Shepherd; 
Carleton, Norwood & Co.; and G. E. Carleton. J. H. Eells 
at Simonton has continued an independent business. 

It is a hard matter to state with accuracy the actual 
number of hands employed in the lime industry in this town, 



HISTORICAL 29 

as the work varies each year and numerous things enter to 
make it a hard matter to estimate the number of employees, 
but it has been estimated that the usual force in town is not 
far from 200 men. It is very easily seen that the prosecu- 
tion to full capacity of this industry means much to the 
town. 

SHIPBUILDING 

Rockport has also been one of the leading towns in this 
section for shipbuilding. The Eells shipyard, we are told, 
was the first of importance in Rockport, with the date 1841 
or thereabout. 

Carleton, Norwood & Co. have been the largest shipbuild- 
ers in town. This concern has averaged to build about one 
vessel per year since they have been in the business. Tlie 
largest vessel built in the Rockport yards was llie Frederick 
Billings built by Carleton, Norwood & Co. in 1885. She had 
the following dimensions: 2628 tons gross, 2497 net, 281 
feet long, 44 feet beam, and 20 feet dfep. 

This concern has employed about 40 men ; sometimes 
more than that number. The shipbuilding industry has not 
been so important as the lime business, but furnishes much 
emplojmient and presents a meaus of drawing business in 
large degree. 

Other shipbuilders have been : David Talbot, John & 
Chas. Barrett, AU)ert S. Eells, John Pascall, Mr. Patrick 
Simonton and others. In fact, in the earlier days almost 
anyone who had means and favorable location built smaller 
vessels for the carrying or fishing trade. 



30 HISTORICAL 

ICE BUSINESS 

For many years the manufacture of ice for the local mar- 
ket and for southern ports has been a source of much benefit 
to the town industrially. The supply is secured from a sheet 
of water locally known as Lily Pond which is verj'^ largely 
fed from springs, insuring a very excellent supply of ice. The 
supply of ice is not far Irom 40,000 tons per acre as cut 
from this pond. The principal operators in this region are 
the Rockport Ice Co. Those engaged to any extent in 
the business before the consolidation into the Rockport 
Ice Co. were: Pitts & Hobbs, probably the first; William 
and Elbridge Carleton ; Messrs. Talbot, Rust, Gould & Bar- 
rett Co. 

The output of this region has been greatly curtailed by 
the recently invented process of freezing ice by mechanical 
methods.

PENOBSCOT VIEW GRANGE. 

Penobscot View Grange is a new org;anization in the 
place. It was organized March 24, 1902 by State Master, 
ObacJiah Gardner and County Deputy F. A. Perry, Jr., with 
27 charter members. 

The first officers of this Grange were: Frank H. Ingra- 
ham. Master; Parks Bunker, Charles A. Sylvester, Henry J. 
Billings, Hiram M. Gregory, Lizzie E Gregory, Margaret 
Billings, James E. Rhodes 2d, Lendon C. Jackson, S. Louise 
Shaw, Bell M. Gregory, Hattie A. Buker, Ava W. Jackson. 

The remaining charter members were: Elizabeth H. In- 
graham, Susan F. Studley, Delia A. Flanders, Frank B. 
Miller, Herbert N. Brazier, Clara AV. Brazier, Bessie A. 
Hewett, Lizzie F. Sylvester, Laura S. Sylvester, Melinda G. 
Hall, ^lary Lane Herrick, Benjamin H. Hall, Olive J. Ma-

The present officers are: Frank H. Ingraham, Master; 
Herbert N. Brazier, Overseer; Charles A.Sylvester, I^ecturer; 
William H. Larrabee, Steward; Will W. Smith, Assistant 
Steward; Elizabeth H. Ingraham, Chaplain; Alfred Murry,

PROFESSIONAL MEN. 

PHYSICIANS. 

'The first physician of whom we have record in town was 
Dr. Isaac Barnard, who came to the Harbor about 1787. 
Here he remained five or six years and married a Miss Toll- 
man ; he then removed to the River where he remained but a 
short time, moving out of town. 

Later physicians have been H. B. Eaton, Sr.; Dr. Hav- 
ener; O, E. Ross; Dr. Frank Piper; H. B. Eaton, Jr.; H. E. 
Abbott; S. Y. Wiedman; Mrs. Clara B. Wiedman ; and Mrs. 
Julia W. Haney. 

LAWYEKS. 

Rockport has not been favored with an unsually large 
number of members of the bar. So far as we have been able 
to learn the lawyers who have lived in Rockport have been 
N. T. Talbot, John S. Foster, G. H. M. Barrett, Benjamin 
Foster, Mr. Moody, and Frank H. Ingraham.

CHURCH AFFAIRS. 

The earliest account of the church in this town is not 
strictly to the credit of the town, although perhaps not so 
much to their discredit as would appear. The earliest men- 
tion of the church in the town records we believe is under 
date of 1794 when the article was inserted in the town war- 
rant "To see what the town will do in regard to an indict- 
ment against them for neglecting for the space of three 
years last past to procure and maintain as the law obliges 
a settled ordained minister." 

A committee was appointed to contest the case before 
the Supreme Court held in Hallov\ell but decision was made 
that the town should pay the full fine, 2 pounds, 14 shillings, 
6 pence. This state of affairs may have been pardonable, 
however, to some degree for the scarcity of ministers in this 
section of the state at this time is demonstrated by a letter 
written by the Hon. Gen. Lincoln, relating to the "Religious 
state of the Eastern Counties of the District of Maine," 
dated at lioston, Feb. 10. 1790, in which itisstated, "There 
are not more than three ordained ministers from Penobscot 
river to Passamaquoddy, an extent of more than one hund- 
red miles." Whatever the cause of this state of affairs may 
have been it is true that the demand generally creates a 
supply, and we believe the town had no ditticult}' in finding 
a preacher. At the next annual town meeting it was voted 
"To raise 30 pounds for the support of the Gospel."

34 HISTORICAL 

On Feb. 4, 1795, the "20 Associates of the Lincolnshire 
Company" donated to the town "the ministerial lot No. 57; 
and the school lot, No. 58, adjoining. The first church 
erected was located on the ministerial lot, we are unable to 
state the exact date but it was very soon after the above 
time. Among the early preachers who officiated here were 
the Reverends: Elisha Shaw, Isaac Case, John Whitney, 
Joseph Richards, Paul Coffin, John Lathrop, Phineas Pills- 
bury, Joshua Hall, Joshua Wells, Robt. Yellalee, Aaron 
Humphrey, and Ephraim Stinchfield. None of these were 
appointed pastors of the Camden church but officiated in 
the several churches in this section. We will now take up 
the history of the churches located in that part which is 
now Rockport. 



CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH. 

In 1836-7 a Sabba.th school was established at Goose 
River by two members of the Camden Congregational 
church. Deacons Stetson and Cobb. There was at that time 
neither church nor Sunday school of any denomination in 
the village. Soon after this Mr. W. M. Swan, a Methodist 
brother from the Harbor joined them bringing a small col- 
lection of books which he had for his children. These books 
were bought for a Sunday School library. In 1842 the 
Methodists drew off from the rest and formed a distinct 
school by themselves. In 1843 the Universalist members 
followed the example of the Methodists. In 1850 the Bap- 



HISTORICAL 35 

tiste did the same. In 1850 the Baptists aud Con^regation- 
alists each built them a house for worship. The Uuiversa- 
lists had already erected a nieetino- house but we were uuable 
to learn the exact date. Later the f^piscopals formed them- 
selves into a church body and worshipped in the church 
built by the Universalists. Neither the Universalists nor the 
Episcopals have an organization in the place at the present 
time. 

The Congregational church was organized March 2, 
1854. They built a chapel on their present lot the following 
fall and winter. Through the faithful efforts of the ladies of 
the parish they were able to engage a pastor. The ladies 
pledged themselves to raise $50 the first 3'ear, having or- 
ganized themselves into a sewing circle. The church grew 
from small membership to a prosperous organization, but 
the membership has of late been diminishing on account of 
the removal of many of its members and supporters until 
now they are unable to support a regular yjastor. 

Those who have served the church as pastors since its 
organization, together with the dates of their coming, are as 
follows: Rev. J. B. Howard, 1854; Rev. A. L. Skinner, 1855; 
Rev. J. E. M. Wright, 1856-64; Rev. Henry Farrar, 1865; 
Rev. A. J. Smith, 1866; from this date to 1888 there are no 
records of the doings of the church. We understand from 
the later records that the church was supplied by several 
preachers during that time. In 1888 Rev. Mr. Tyler of 
Camden preached here part of the year, and the year follow- 
ing; Rev. Mr. Strong, 1891; Rev. Mr. Haughton, 1891-2; 
Rev. J. J. Walker, 1893; Rev. Mr. Kennison, 1894-5; and 



36 HISTORICAL 

Rev. C. W. Fisher, 1895-8. Since that time the church has 
been without a regular pastor. 



METHODIST CHURCH. 

From the records of the Methodist church we learn that 
the first Methodist preacher here was Rev. Joshua Hall, who 
preached in Rockport in 1801. This place was then a part 
of the Union circuit remaining so until 1827. From that 
time until 1838 it belonged to the Thomaston circuit. In 
1848 the East Maine Conference was organized and Camden 
became a mission. Rev. John Prince was appointed pastor, 
and built the first church at Goose River, now Rockport. 
In 1852 a church was organized at Camden village, and 
Rockport became a separate charge and has since remained 
so. In the years 1872-3 while Rev. Chas. Knowles was 
pastor, the old church was moved to the adjoining lot and 
a new modern church built on the old site. The parsonage 
was built in 1857 by Rev. A. C. Godfrey. The following is a 
list of the faithful men who have served the denomination 
as preachers here : Reverends, Joshua Hall, 1801; Joseph 
Baker; Daniel Ricker, 1802-3; Daniel Stinson, 1804; Samuel 
Wilman, 1805-0; Pliny Bret, 1805; J. Weston, 1800; S.

BAPTIST CHURCH. 

The Rock port Baptist Church was organized May 17, 
1842. It grew out of meetings held in a little brick school- 
house situated under the brow of Diamond Hill, in what was 
then termed Goose River Village. The church began its 



38 HISTORICAL 

career with twelve disciples, who brouoht their letters of dis- 
mission from other churches for this purpose. All of this 
little band have now gone to their long rest. 

The present buildiug was erected in 1856, and was re- 
built, and re-dedicated June 7, 1888. It is situated on the 
corner of Commercial and Amesbury streets. 

The following is the list of pastors who have served the 
church, with their dates of appointment, generally serving

The Advents in the place organized a church society

after. Kev. Fred Johnson is the only one who has served 
the society as the regular pastor, remaining here for three 
years. Since that time the pulpit has been filled by travel- 
ing evangelists and preachers from the surrounding towns.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES 

The first school house of which we have any knowledge 
was situated on Capt. Jesse Hosmer's land. This was a 
frame building, part of which was afterwards used by Mr. 
Coburn Tyler as a dwelling house. Liberal appropriations 
were made by the newly incorporated town for school expen- 
ditures. Among the early schoolmasters here were: Asa 
Hosmer, in 1794, Robert Portersfield and Benj. Stetson fol- 
lowing. Rev. Joshua Hall, the local IVIethodist preacher in 
1802, taught the school for a season, teaching one term at 
the Harbor, then one at the River. Gradually but surely the 
interest of the residents became more manifested by the 
increased support they gave the early schools. New houses 
were built, new schools estabhshed, and new and improved 
textbooks used. 

In 1851 an academy was opened attended by 68 pupils 
during the first term, but their hope of receiving a grant of 
land from the State Legislature was not realized and the 
school was suspended. 

The present eflficient system of instruction in Rockport 
shows the careful and progressive management the work has 
received. The present schools are modeled after the best 
schools in the state, are well supplied with maps, globes, lab- 
oratory equipment, etc. The village schools are divided into 
four grades; primary, intermediate, grammar and high, 
with two schools of each of the lower grades. The West 



HISTORICAL 41 

Rockport district has been divided and the schools graded 
as efficiently as possible in the two schools now formed there. 
Accordino; to the school census taken in April, 1908, there 
were in town 654 scholars between the ages of 4 and 2] . 
The report showed an average attendance of about 334 dur- 
ing the past school year. The rural districts are generally 
small, but do good work. 

With the advent of the high S(;hool the efficiency of the 
local school was greatly augmented, offering to the town's 
youth the privilege of completing a course of study, or of fol- 
lowing a College Preparatory course. The school now offers 
a four years' course as a fitting school and is under the care 
of H. L. Withee, who has given such eminent satisfaction 
during the past year.

arranged herewith in families where that arrangement has 
been possible. In these families, in addition to the resi- 
dent living members, the names of tlie non-resident mem-

plan does not include the names of all former residents 
of this town, as the names of the non-residents appear 
only when one or both the parents are still living in the 
town. At the end of the Census will be found the names 
of non-residents with their present addresses, when such 
addresses have been given to us. The non-residents are
